Instead of "NONE" in my fstab, should they be something different for the following?

I doubt thats the reason for your problem tho... better check for the IDE support and expecially the support for the IDE Chipset in your box.

Anyone know what the ide chipset is in a Ultra 10, I've had it working a couple of weeks ago but wanted to start form stage 1. Getting the sparc kernel bellow 3.5 seems to be pretty hard. Maybe I removed the chipset.

Your loosing me on the "Sun disk label" were and why do I need it? I don' t have Solaris on here anymore, my /etc/fstab mirrors what is shown in the install docs and I created the slice's per install doc's. What am I missing with the "Sun disk label"??

The IDE chipset is option is called "CMD64{3|6|8|9} chipset support" in menuconfig. HTH!

Thanks, I think I did remove that, will check when I get home. Why do people keep asking about the "sun disk label" what am I missing with that?

Last thing, what is "HTH"? Hi there hi. j/k My brain is fried today and I can't think anymore. oh work, the day is almost over!

Hopefully I can add some insight to your questions without getting anything wrong.

The disk label is how the partitions are structured on the drive (my understanding) and having a non-Sun disklabel can be a problem, which is why everyone was asking about it. The fact you have a 'Whole Disk' partition indicates to me (my assumption here) that you have a Sun label.
